The first major resistance is near the $3,240 level. The next key resistance sits at $3,300, above which the price might gain traction and rise toward the $3,350 level. A close above the $3,350 resistance could send the price toward the $3,450 resistance. If there is a move above the $3,450 resistance, Ethereum could even test the $3,550 resistance. Any more gains could send Ether toward the $3,620 resistance zone.
If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,250 resistance, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,170 level and the channel zone. The first major support is near the $3,120 zone.
The main support is near the $3,070 level. A clear move below the $3,070 support might push the price toward $3,030. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,880 level in the near term.
